The bases of the trapezoid are 17 and 19. Find the largest of the line segments into which one of its diagonals divides the middle line of this trapezoid.

The diagonal divides the trapezoid into two triangles. The midline of the trapezoid will also be the midline in these triangles. Midline of a triangle with a base of 17 cm = 17: 2 = 8.5 cm, Midline of a triangle with a base of 19 cm = 19: 2 = 9.5 cm
